NOTE TO A. IGNATYEV
October 13/1921
0295

Comrade Ignatyev!

I am informed that you again are not taking up work at Gokhran* and are writing me a report note.

I protest decisively.

I will not read reports.

I demand that you drop the report and tomorrow begin work.

Return this to me with a receipt that you have accepted it for execution.

Greetings!

Your Lenin.

NOTE TO SECRETARY
[October 15, 1921]

The enclosed in the envelope — to the archive on the Ignatyev matter.1 Send the note (attached), having taken a copy.

Lenin.

1 Lenin has in mind a letter from N. N. Krestinsky, in which he wrote that his attempts to persuade Ignatyev to go to Gokhran had failed and that he therefore was no longer insisting on his candidacy.

NOTE TO N. N. KRESTINSKY**
October 15, 1921

Comrade Krestinsky,

In view of your letter I am not writing to Ignatyev and consider the matter with him closed.

That means you are setting things in order with Basha1 and Bokiy2 and so on, without Ignatyev.

K. pr. Lenin.

1 N. O. Basha — member of the collegium of Narkonfin.
2 G. I. Bokiy — member of the collegium of the VChK.
